Title: Power control for transmission of a discovery signal for a specific communication mode
Inventor: TURTINEN SAMULI
IPC: H04W8/00
Filed: 2012-01-18
Abstract: Power control for transmission of a discovery signal in a communication network (Figure 1), in particular for a D2D (Device-to-Device) discovery signal. A network control element, such as an enodeB (10, Figure 1), configures transmission power parameters usable for determining a transmission power to be set by a communication device, such as a UE (20, Figure 1), for transmitting a discovery signal for a specific communication mode. The configured transmission power parameters are sent from the enodeB to the UE by means of an information element, such as a dedicated system information block (SIB) S30. In the UE, the transmission power parameters are used to set the transmission power for transmitting the discovery signal in the specific communication mode S50. In a further embodiment the discovery signal may itself comprise a power information element indicating whether or not, and possibly how, the transmission power used for transmitting the discovery signal differs from a common transmission power reference value (Figure 2). The discovery signal including the power information element may further be used to determine path loss and/or link quality over the D2D link (Figure 6). In a particular further embodiment a UE capable of communicating simultaneously a cellular mode uplink signal and a discovery signal for a specific communication mode may scale its transmission power in accordance with a maximum transmission power threshold for the device. The discovery signal may be scaled first and if this is insufficient to meet the threshold the cellular uplink signal may also be scaled (Figure 10).

Title: Dry food product comprising an edible film
Inventor: CROSS CATHERINE LAURA
IPC: A23L29/269
Filed: 2012-06-14
Abstract: A substantially dry food product portion comprises a sheet comprising a food product and an edible film. The food product portion may be a stock cube, soup, sauce, powdered drinks e.g. coffee or hot chocolate, spices, or non perishable products such as flavourants and colourings. The edible film may comprise a food grade polymer, which may be gellable to form a substantially solid gel when dried to facilitate forming the film. The edible polymer may be pullulan which is a polysaccharide highly impermeable to oxygen and helps to preserve food products which are contained in the film. The food products may be combined with pullulan in a solution, cast into sheets having a desired thickness, and dried. Pullulan may be used to create a substantially solid food product in the form of an edible, dissolvable film which also provides thickening properties for a liquid product in which it is dissolved.
Patent GB-2492245-A (GB)
Title: Pallet for a vehicle
Inventor: CARLING MAXWELL ANTHONY
IPC: B65D88/12
Filed: 2012-06-25
Abstract: A transport pallet 1 has an inclined load bed that extends from a low end to a high end. A vehicle 15 is driven onto the pallet 1 from the low end, which is close to the ground. As the pallet 1 is longer than the vehicle 15 carried on it, the gradient of the load bed is small as compared to conventional loading ramps. Thus, there is very little risk of the vehicle 15 grounding as it is driven onto the load bed. The vehicle 15 is secured to the load bed by tie-down points around the load bed. A forklift truck lifts the pallet 1 by engaging its forks within recesses at the high end. The truck then places the pallet 1, low end leading, into a shipping container 14, lowers the pallet 1 so that it rests on the floor of the container 14, and disengages from the pallet 1. Thus, the vehicle 15 is housed safely within the container 14, with little risk of damage during shipping.

Information is obtained about a load caused by the devices located within a cell or cell group performing authentication. If it is determined that the load requires to be controlled, the cellular network controls performance of the authentication by a set of the devices. An indication that performance of the authentication by a device must be controlled is received and performance of the authentication by the device is controlled based on the indication. An identity of a cell or group of cells providing coverage in an area where an access point is located is included within a field of a RADIUS or DIAMETER message, forwarded by the access point to an authenticating entity. The non-cellular network may be a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). The control performance of the authentication includes inhibiting the set of the one or more devices from performing authentication.

Title: System to provide a supply of controlled salinity water for enhanced oil recovery
Inventor: MELLOR GARY
IPC: B01D61/02
Filed: 2012-06-30
Abstract: A method for providing controlled salinity water for enhanced oil recovery begins by raising the pressure of, and then splitting, a treated seawater feed (11) into two supply streams (21) (41) which are then processed in parallel. One supply stream is passed thorough a nanofiltration membrane system (23) while the other is passed through a reverse osmosis membrane system (43). The permeate streams are then combined for an overall recovery factor in a range of 50% to 65%. The pressure of the first supply stream (21) is preferably reduced prior to treatment, and the nanofiltration membrane system (23) may be housed in a pressure vessel rated for use with a reverse osmosis membrane system (43). Energy can be recovered from the nanofiltration reject stream (27) or the reverse osmosis reject (47) and used to reduce the feed pumping power or provide an inter-stage pressure boost. The single seawater feed allows for a simplified pumping and piping arrangement.

Abstract: Educational apparatus comprises a book, magazine, game board insert, or App for presenting puzzles. The puzzles comprise pre-anagrams, i.e. anagrams from which a vowel has been removed. A user must deduce the vowel missing from each pre-anagram to form completed anagrams, and rearrange the completed anagrams to form predetermined words. The pre-anagrams are arranged so that (i) the correct solution is obtained by matching a particular vowel with a particular pre-anagram so the completed anagram forms a particular predetermined word, and (ii) where a set of vowels and pre-anagrams is provided then the set cannot all be solved if a particular vowel is matched to the wrong pre-anagram because at least one vowel and pre-anagram are left unmatched. The words may be selected from passages of text, with the text being provided with the pre-anagrams so the user can search the text for the predetermined words. Clues may be provided in the text by highlighting the words using a different font or highlighting the missing vowel. The missing vowels may be provided as reusable letter stickers or the like.
